Written teacher read-aloud · Day 64

Split a big group into useful parts

Let's make a plan someone can use. Four repair kits need 16 paper labels each. How many labels are needed? What do we know? What are we trying to find? Make marks, move paper pieces, point, sign, talk or type. Give the quantities their own labels before you calculate. Here is one worked example: 4 × 16 = (4 × 10) + (4 × 6) = 64. 64 labels, with 16 in each of 4 kits. Now look back at the brief. Does our answer count the right thing and meet the supplied conditions? For 4 × 17, the four tens stay 40 and four sevens are 28, so 68 labels. The extra one in each kit adds four labels, not one. Take your time. Choose one of today's new briefs and make your own plan. A different correct strategy is welcome. Explain one check and one useful conclusion.
